Karting

CEZ Championship E2-2000 and Formula Renault

In 2010, Gonda made the step up to single-seater racing, taking part in the Central European Zone Championship E2-2000 class where he secured sixth place overall with 37 points. That same year, he entered three rounds of the Formula Renault 2.0 Northern European Cup FR-2000 category driving for Sophidea and also competed at Silverstone in the Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0 with Krenek Motorsport.
